One Guest Blogger—Shaken, Not Stirred

We’re getting ready to head out for the weekend and enjoy this first day of spring, but first, we’re very happy to announce that we’ll be featuring a guest blogger here on Family Jewels next week! Who is this mystery woman? None other than the lovely Nadine Silverthorne.

While her personal blog, Martinis for Milk, is sometimes a bit R-rated (“It’s the clearinghouse for my brain and I sincerely hope it does not cause my children to be bullied in their teens,” she says), after blogging for more than five years, this mom of two (Nate, 4, and Lucy, 18 months) definitely knows how to craft an entertaining read. When she’s not divulging details that her husband would rather you not read and sharing anecdotes from her life as a mom that are often downright hilarious, she’s helping other moms to “raise them fabulous” as the editor of Sweetmama.ca—a perfect fit, since she doesn’t feel that motherhood and style are mutually exclusive (though she admits that she often finds diapers and stray mini socks in her Cole Haan tote).

Have an excellent weekend, and be sure to check back on Monday for Nadine’s first blog!
